As my hair was getting too long, I bought the cordless Philips Series 5000 Hair Clipper from Myers on-line for $60 (less a voucher my wife had) - it has two clipping combs, one adjusts from 3mm to 15mm, the other 16mm to 28mm length.
I put the setting to 15mm and told my wife to only do the parts I couldn't see at that setting, and I'd do the rest with it and with scissors.
Done this way, no trust was involved, she wasn't stressed, and I was solely responsible for any dud result. Anyhow, it turned out okay though slightly shorter than usual. Next time I'll use the 18 to 20mm setting.
Regards,
Renato
